Qualification and format
In a change from the previous year, the top 16 on the two-year main PDC Order of Merit ranking were seeded and entered the tournament in the second round, while the 16 qualifiers from the one-year PDC Pro Tour Order of Merit ranking entered in the first round.[6][7][8] In another change, the 16 Pro Tour Order of Merit qualifiers were drawn against one of the 16 other qualifiers in the first round.
The seedings were confirmed on 14 June.[9] The remaining 16 places went to players from four qualifying events – 10 from the Tour Card Holder Qualifier (held on 20 June),[10] four from the Host Nation Qualifier (held on 28 August),[11] one from the Nordic & Baltic Associate Member Qualifier (held on 4 July),[12] and one from the East European Associate Member Qualifier (held on 9 August).[13]
Luke Humphries, Nathan Aspinall and Gary Anderson all withdrew from the event. They were replaced by three players from the reserve list, while Josh Rock, Martin Schindler and Ryan Searle moved up to become the 14th, 15th and 16th seeds respectively.[14] Gerwyn Price then withdrew with a hand injury,[15] and was not replaced in the draw.[16]
